Question 1044210: Analyzing relationships: As c increases, does the value of x increase, decrease, or stay the same for each equation? Assume c is positive:
x-c=0
cx=1
cx=c
x/c=1

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x - c = 0 ===> x = c ===> If c increases then x increases naturally.
cx = 1 ===> x = 1/c ===> x decreases as c increases, since c > 0.
cx = c ===> x = 1 since c%3C%3E0 ===> As c increases, x stays the same.
x/c = 1 => x = c, and we return to the first case above.
